RUN away from Ninety-Six, on the 5th of this inst. November, two very likely dark mulatto slaves, the property of the subscriber viz. PETER and JOE; they are brothers, and both of them are shoe-makers, tanners, sawyers and jobing carpenters; they are remarkably sensable, and speak good English. Peter is a well set fellow, of a yellow complexion, and has a scar over one of his eye-brows, and has lost one of his toes; he had upon him when he run away, a country made cloth coat, a check shirt, leather breeches, and white negro cloth boots. Jee has a large scar on one side, occasioned by the stab of a knife, and is somewhat longer than Peter, and somewhat darker; he had upon him when he went away, a green coat: they took with them two black horses belonging to the subscriber, and it is apprehended they will indeavour to get to Augustine. Whoever apprehended the said two fellows, and delivers them to me in Amelia, or to William Simpson, Esq; in Charles-Town, or to the warden of the work-house, shall be paid a reward of one hundred and fifty pounds currency by.
